The NASA Formal Methods Symposium is a forum for theoreticians andpractitioners from academia, industry, and government, with the goals ofidentifying challenges and providing solutions to achieving assurancein mission- and safety-critical systems. Within NASA, for example, suchsystems include autonomous robots, separation assurance algorithms for aircraft,Next Generation Air Transportation (NextGen), and autonomous rendezvous anddocking for spacecraft. Moreover, emerging paradigms such as code generation
